“We cannot measure the influence that one or another artist has upon the child’s sense of beauty, upon his power of seeing, as in a picture, the common sights of life; he is enriched more than we know in having really looked at even a single picture.”—Charlotte Mason

Heather –
We are greatly enjoying adding this to our enrichments this year. The prints are sturdy and beautiful and my children are excited to learn more about the artist personally and each print from the teacher booklet.
Tina Surette –
My children loved this one! I have a few of the other picture study portfolios from Simply Charlotte Mason. In addition to following the picture study directions, we also play a game where I put out a number of pictures from other artists and one from Vermeer and have them see if they can identify the Vermeer. They are always so proud of themselves when they pick the right one.
